Lordy,Lordy

Hi all, just got home from a trip to the Ouichita Mountains of Arkansas/Oklahoma. The only mountain range in the USA that runs east/west. Saw plenty on bearded iris in bloom at lower elevations and tons of I. cristata still weeks away from bloom in the hills. Saw some neat none iris stuff too.

Anyway, at home the Juno's have jumped to the forefront, nearly all at peak bloom, wish you were here. Also I. iberica ( remember the flower with the face like a baboon I posted a photo of last year?), and good old reliable Atroviolacea are in flower. No time for photos tonight as I'm pooped from the long drive.

Last night I was at the lodge at Queen Wihlemena State Park on top of a mountain with tornado warnings and the lights went out. Que sera, sera, so I went to bed.
